Snowden Anagram Fun!

As many of you are aware, as the news broke about this NSA whistleblower, his name was always ERIC Snowden. Now, the news changes his name to EDWARD
Snowden. What's the deal? Well, it's part of the social media game designed by the NSA. I'll explain further down.

First, let's look at anagrams. Usually anagrams are coincidental at best, but often times authors will use anagrams to generate character names. See:
Lord Voldemort, Harry Potter series.

Eric Snowden - first name used by media
Eric Snowden = Censor Widen

CENSOR WIDEN is the game. The game is to see just what can and can't be controlled online, and how quickly. Part of this game is to scrub past stories
and insert facts which weren't present in an initial report. If done in a reasonable time frame, more people will believe the edit, rather than the
initial report, regardless of the edit being made.

Edward Snowden - second name used by media
Edward Snowden = Answer Ed Now DD
DD (DoD) now has control over the Edward Snowden character and further media contact. Mission Complete.

Ed Snowden - third and final name used by media
Ed Snowden = Ed Ends Now

One can get lost in the art of anagrams... It truly is fun to use hidden language in double speak. So... yeah, pretty sure this entire story is a
media mindgame, which makes sense given the fictitious Snowden's background.
